Those "cheap shots" I'd classify as showbiz. Do it for the views...
And I think majority of the folks still around here have grown accustomed to being misunderstood and misrepresented somehow.
I wasn't aware of this jauwn character until I stumbled into your post here. I wasn't aware some Hive people helped put him on the map (according to the comment section under the video), so that's kind of funny. I wasn't aware of this supposed flash mob either. Silly humans...
Over the years (coming close to a decade? holy fuck) I've noticed every time someone on the outside looks in and reports on this thing we got going on here, they miss the mark.
To be expected. People go to a city, visit a few locations, report their findings. In reality they've hardly scratched the surface and know nothing about the place. "There was a fly in my soup. Don't go to Paris."
To be fair to it all.. this community is a cult of sorts.. Not meant in a negative way.. but HIVE people are adamant HIVE promoters and lovers etc etc.. The outside folks that weren't around for the Steem/Hive trauma will never get it I guess.
I get what you mean. I wouldn't expect them to get it.
Some of the "community" elements here are strange. People think "The Hive Community" doesn't want to support that famous card game we got here because that famous proposal hasn't passed, yet "The Hive Community" is supporting it to the point it's nearly approved. There's some crossed wires there. It's more like a community and when you think of a city, it's not a cult. Most people don't even know one another here. Just a group of individuals all doing their own thing and there's no way we'll all agree and get along.
Those going to "defend" their game under a Youtube video. That's just tribalism.
Tribalism is a good word for HIVE folks and community... We are all part of tribes, but all part of the HIVE tribe in general.
To be far to SL.. When it launched it was awesome.. but the league limit tied to deck size / power fuckin' killed it for me.
HIVE has like.. MAYBE 1500 users active daily at this point that are real people.. I assume the rest is bots / GPT reward farming..
Perhaps cult has a negative connotation in folks minds moreso than I perceive such.. Didn't mean it in a negative way.. more in a "we are a group that interact with the same network as habit" typwe thing
Some of it I agree with.. some seems like cheap shots.. Just found it interesting that jauwn was aware of SL and HIVE.
